A RUssO-TURKISH ALLIANCE.
Action Which Points to Some Kind of
an Agreement.

an Agreement.
ST. PETERSBURG, Oct 5.-M. de Giers,
Minister of Foreign Affairs, has written a
letter TO Chakir Pasha, the Turkish Am
bassador to Russia, announcing Russia's ac-
ceptance of the Porte's proposal to send an
Ottoman Commissioner TO Bulgaria to act in
conjunction with a Russian Lieutenant
Governor of princely rank, but instead of
the latter's being subordinate to the
Ottoman Commissioner, Russia proposes
that the Ottoman Commissioner
shall have the second rank. Russia also
proposes that the term for which the APP
pointments be made shall be four months,
instead of three. as mentioned in the Porte's
proposal. According to some reports Rus
sia urges that the question of the
participation of the Roumelian deputies
in the election of Bulgaria for members OF
the Sobranie, be submitted to consideration
of the Powers, while according TO others,
Russia insists that the Roumelian deputies
shall not sit in the Sobranje The Porte's
acceptance of Russian General as Leuten-
ant Governor of Bulgaria, is regarded as
pledging Turkey TO support Russian pro-
posals, involving, if necessary, Turkish
initiative action in Bulgaria.

In the House.

In the House to-day Mr.. Harrell, of Web

House in passing the bill to levy special
tax for educational purposes. After short
discussion of the motion it was tabled.
Mr. Russell of Clarke, moved to reconsider
the action of the House in failing to pass
the bill providing for the payment of a
bond belonging to the estate of r. p. Dear
ing The motion prevailed
Mr. Howell, of Decatur offered resolu-
ton providing for the holding of night
sessions tonight, tomorrow night, and
Friday night for the purpose OF voting on
House bills, or their third reading, and
Senate bills reported.
Under a suspension of the rules the bill
TO amend the general tax act passed.
Mr.. Jones of Baker, moved that the
special order of the day-the Huff bill--be
laid on the table
The Speaker ruled that this could not be
done until the bill was properly up in com
mittee of the whole.
Mr. FELTON,, of Bibb, moved to take up the
special order.
Mr. Ham, of Hall, hoped that the effort
which had been made by the gentleman

He regarded the convict question as very

Mr. Huff had the floor, and continued his
argument He said that he was not at all

trying to cut Off the debate on this bill He
expected this thing before He said it was
unjust TO him and other gentlemen on the

How to Warm Rooms.

Frequently the chilly feeling that one
experiences from the windowward side

current of cold air setting from the
window to the fire, but by the GOODNESS
of the window itself For this latter.
being kept at low temperature by con-
tact with tho open air, draws the heat
from the body, or rather the heat radi-
ates from the body to the window, the
temperature of the air in between MAX
ing no difference whatever to the trans
ference, in accordance with we'll
known property of radiant heat.
For instance, the air in room may
be quite hot, and yet large window,
however alright, will make itself un-
pleasantly felt on cold day, just as on
board ship the propinquity of an ice
berg is announced by alowering of tenn
perature. A screen interposed between
the window and any one exposed to its
malign influence will often afford relief,
and one reason why rooms so frequent
ly feel more comfortable in the evening
is that the cold glass is effectually shut
of behind the closely drawn-curtains.
In countries where the SHOWS are
habitually severe the advent of frost is
usually the signal for the fixing up of
inner windows, the laver of air between
these and the outer ones forming an OK
cellent barrier to the escape Of heat,
owing to its low conductive power.
Cold walls also induce sense of chilli
ness. but IL they are properly built there
should be no difficulty in keeping them
warm upon the inside.
The experiment has sometimes been
tried OF warming rooms by means of hot
mir only, but the result has never been
good; and for this reason--that, in or
der to warm the walls to- the requisite
degree. the air must be far hotter than
is healthy or agreeable for breathing.
In fact, the principle is wrong; the air
should not warm the walls, but the
walls warm the air.
An open fire acts in this latter way.
The rays of heat pass through the air
without heating II, and produce no effect
till they impingc on the walls, furniture
and carpet of the room. These, being
thus gently warmed, communicate
their heat by contact with the air about
them, and in this way. while the objects
in the room are raised to sufficient
temperature, tho air Is not rendered un-
pleasant by being over-heated.
We see, then. that our favorite open
fires have much to recommend them,
whatever may be said about their waste
fitness; and as regards health and COM
fort they are much better than close
stoves. which. though they radiate their
warmth. also heat the air In contact
with them, and are apt to do SO to ex-
